There ya go; I knew I wasn't crazy, and it could be done;
I just thought PuTTY 0.51 could do it.  It's the first
time I've needed to XWindows on the machines outside the 
firewall remotely, so tunnelling wasn't that important to 
me until now.

I've now got one of the two machines tunnelling; somehow the
other (even though it's using the exact same user space; the
one that is working uses NFS to mount the user space from the
one that isn't working) is blitzing the DISPLAY environment 
variable;  I'll get that figured out today, though.

Thanks for the help everyone!
